India is rich in it's street-food culture. This is something which you just cannot avoid in any city, or in any corner street. Talking about Ohri’s... they have taken this experience to it's restaurant chains. They offer the classic street-food at their Ohri’s Chowpatti restaurant at Banjara Hills.
.
It's always an amazing idea to start with Pani-puri! We had our puris served on the table, but still preferred having them from the live counter. That’s altogether fun right?
Palak chaat was one of their first delicacies which was served on table. It’s my favourite appetizer with yogurt, sev, chaat masalas which is also topped with coriander chutney and chilli flakes!
.
Then we tried their Misal Pav, which is a kholapuri delicacy and one of Maharashtra’s famous street food. The Pav’s served were sliced and diced, served along with spicy chillis which reminded me of my days at Mumbai. In Mumbai this used to be my daily routine with my peeps at office. Whenever you're in Mumbai and hungry... just go grab a plate of Misal Pav. You'll never go wrong!
.
Then came the Dosa Tacos. They were okayish, and I’m not a great fan of dosas. It was a modern twist to the traditional dosa, but the Mexican taco treatment to our Indian dosas felt refreshing, such an innovative concept, I must say! It came along with Chole Baturae and we all loved this classic breakfast! And then, the Chef worked his way out to present his signature dish Paneer Makhni fondue. This was just out of the world!!! This Indian curry always delights us with its rich gravy. Scrumptious!
.
For Desserts, we had Badam milk and Jalebis with Rabdi! I’m a big fan of Jalebis and that’s how we ended our street food tour!

Ohri's is a really big brand which started it's legacy in the year 1976. And from then,they never disappointed anyone with their food,service and the maintenance of their hotels.
Normally,ohri's is famous for their fine dining's. Recently, they have got into street food &chaat items to which they named as Ohri's chowpatti.
.
This place is located in the same complex of Ohri's far east,eatmor. This is actually easy to find out the place even in heavy traffic. This place actually serves lot of chaat items ,lassi,soda's etc..;
.
I have started with mango lassi,rose milk & badam milk. For me,those three are top notch. I can say these three drinks from their menu stands in the first place. Especially in this summer season,one has to relish these amazing drinks. Also,these are available in moderate prices ranging b/w 80/- to 100/-
.
Ohri's is re-defining the name of golgappa's . They serve it with 3types of water which are khatta,tamarind &tomato flavoured water. But,mostly I prefer to have panipuri's to have with tamarind water. which restaurant gives you Pani puri:' s with three different flavors of water and with a nice presentation,good quality just for 70/-?? But,Ohri's does it.
.
palak patte ki chaat is an item which is originated in North India. Basically,spinach leaf is coated with besan flour and fried. Finally,served by adding curd onto it and some spicy masala to get the perfect taste. This dish really tasted wonderful. It really melts fast in your mouth and so was the spicy papdi chaat.
.
Did you ever thoughto having mini dosas shaped like tacos? Ohri's is now providing you dosas with smaller sizes just like tacos and inside filling will be of potato curry. This was really excellent with it's taste and spectacular with it's view.
.
And the two items which came after dosa tacos were chole bature & pav bhaji fondue really disappointed me. These both would have been better if spicy levels are more in it.
.
And the most wanted drink which a hyderabadi always waits for, has came to us. Yes,it's none other than chai #bolochai. That was extremely good in taste . It was served hot in a small glass. This has a name called cutting chai which is very familiar to the ones who has it in Cafe's.
.
Manager Manas & Chef Chand pasha has taken really good care of us . They made sure that every item came in time with a nice presentation and good taste as well.
